I've always heard that either honey dew melons or cantaloupes are considered "the perfect food", in that it is packed with nutrition and low in calories. I just can't remember which it is. Anybody know?

wasn't it just a generic recommendation to eat "melons"?
If I were to guess, I would pick cantaloupe using the theory that the brighter the color the more nutritious.
Orange implies higher carotenoids which is an anti-oxidant.

I think they are equal value in nutrition. It's just a matter of preference.Personally I like them both.

I can't imagine one being better than the other as both are mainly water
It would be a question of what the taste does for you

Both are healthy, just use portion control.
